Newborn and Infant Feeding Guidance

Feeding guidance by Dr. Chirag Saluja offers parents clarity, confidence, and expert support during the most important phase of an infant’s life. He guides mothers with breastfeeding techniques, proper latching, comfortable feeding positions, and methods to improve milk supply. Challenges such as breast discomfort, low supply, baby refusal, or frequent crying are addressed with practical and personalised solutions. For families using formula, Dr. Saluja recommends safe formula options and teaches correct preparation and sterilisation techniques to prevent infections. He educates parents on understanding hunger cues, burping methods, digestion patterns, and healthy feeding intervals. Common concerns such as colic, reflux, vomiting, gassiness, or slow feeding are evaluated with care to ensure the child’s comfort. When it is time for weaning, he offers step-by-step guidance on introducing solids, choosing the right textures, balancing meals, and maintaining proper timing. Parents are educated on essential nutrients, hydration, safe feeding practices, and the prevention of choking hazards. Feeding concerns like poor weight gain, picky eating, or inconsistent feeding patterns are monitored closely through follow-ups. Dr. Saluja strives to make mothers feel supported, respected, and understood throughout their feeding journey. His advice helps families establish healthy eating habits from the earliest stage, ensuring strong immunity, steady growth, and emotional bonding. The goal is to provide infants with the best possible nutritional start in life under the expert supervision of a trusted paediatric specialist.
